Enlarge workspace elements and text in CS6

Hi,

Just installed my new laptop with hi-res screen (3840 x2160), Windows10. All programms in CS6 (Photoshop, Illustrator and Photoshop) are showing very small workspace elements. They are hard to read and can't seem to adjust them to a "normal"size. Tried to change the interface and UI scaling, but it does not seem to help. I can only adjust them to an even smaller size! Please help, it is impossible to work this way...

    Correct answer BobLevine

    Yes, it is set to 250% (recommended)

    If I change it to f.e. 300% it does not seem to help.


    Then I'm afraid you've gone as far as you can go. Scaling won't go higher than 200%. Perhaps try setting the O/S scaling to 200% and see if that helps. That way the scaling of the UI will match the O/S scaling.

    BTW, how big is that screen?

    That is NOT a CS6 screenshot.

    Do you have UI scaling set in the operating system?

      Sorry, you are right. It seems to be Adobe CC 2017.

      For UI scaling I can click 2 options: 1. Adjust to lower factor (makes it even smaller) 2. Adjust to higher factor (current setting)

      Do you have scaling set in the O/S?
